About the Item
An energetic American midcentury oil on canvas painting depicting a lively horse racing scene, presented in its original giltwood frame. Executed with a bold, impressionistic hand, the work captures the immediacy and atmosphere of the track: jockeys in colorful silks race past the grandstand while spectators cluster along the rail, watching intently. The painter’s use of broad, textured strokes conveys both motion and excitement, while the reflections on the wet ground and overcast sky suggest a rainy day at the course, adding mood and atmosphere to the scene.
The composition is anchored by monumental architectural structures in the background, balanced against the animated figures and horses in the foreground. The giltwood frame, original to the period, adds warmth and refinement, complementing the vivid palette of the scene.
Measuring 52.5 inches wide, 2.5 inches deep, and 29 inches high, this large-scale painting makes a commanding statement in any interior. With its dynamic subject, evocative weather, and midcentury vigor, it is well-suited to collectors of sporting art, Americana, or modernist oil paintings.
